First Departure reverts back to their original roster which they used back when they first formed in 2012. Hanafication and Poloson replace KS and daFa to once again join up with their long-time team mates of Meracle, Meen and Lubby.
First Departure returns to the roots and once again picks up offlaner player Hanafication and midlaner Poloson, both players who were part of the team prior to the majority of the roster being consumed into Scythe Gaming. Both the original First Departure-squad as well as the now disbanded Scythe team were successful in the South East Asian team, always being top contenders in events they participated in.
After a lacklustre performance in the qualifiers for The International 4, Scythe Gaming announced in early August that the team disbanded and some of the players would be returning to First Departure, the team would then come to consist of Meracle, KS, daFa, Meen and Lubby. The team decided to remove KS from the roster three days ago, without his consent and he mentioned taking a break from competitive Dota as a result. Today, also DaFa has been announced to be off the roster.
The new roster with Hana and Poloson in the ranks is as a matter of fact the original First Departure squad that surfaced back in 2012. They eventually managed to make a name for themselves back then after playing various of regional tournaments such as GEST and GosuCup. Since the split of Scythe Gaming, Poloson teamed up with Malaysian roster of Johnny's Revenge while Hanafication played with fellow Singaporean players in Assail. Both players have been seen playing with Insidious Idol at multiple occasions.
